■ 3-2
3.2.2 Turning the power on
Connect the power cord to the power terminal and insert the power cord into the outlet.
Turn on the power switch. Confirm the following before turning power on.
・ The nose piece is firmly secured.
・ The protective glass under the nose piece is clean.
・ There is no lens set on the nose piece.
・ There is no dust or dirt on the nose piece tip.
- Place the lens on the nose piece after the measurement screen appears.
“INITIAL ERROR” occurs when power is turned on with a lens on the
nose piece.
- When turning power on while the nose piece for measuring contact
lenses is set, a buzzer goes off after the startup screen appears and an
error message appears.
- Enter contact lens measurement mode after turning power on.
(Do not turn power on while the nose piece for measuring contact lenses
is mounted.)
3.2.3 Operation of the marking unit

The marking unit is a device with three ink markers used to mark the optical center of
the lens and the axis direction (in the case of cylindrical lens). Place the marks while the
lens is secured with the lens holder.
- Slowly lower the lens holder. If the lens holder is lowered rapidly, the lens
may be damaged.
- Use the lens holder only when marking points.

- When measuring a coated lens, do not move the lens while secured by
the lens holder; otherwise the coating may be damaged.
- Do not touch the marker tip. Otherwise the marker tip may be deformed
and the marker may become unusable.
- Replace the ink cartridge when dots become too light.
3.2.4 Operation of the lens table

The lens table is used as a reference for the astigmatic axis of glasses.
- The lens table automatically unlocks after 3 minutes.
3-3 ■
3.2.5 Replacing the nose piece
1) Attach the CL nose piece in contact lens measurement mode, and the spectacle nose
piece for measuring spectacle glasses in spectacle glass measurement mode.
2) The measurement mode automatically switches to “CL” mode when the nose piece is
replaced with the CL nose piece in single lens measurement mode.
■ 3-4
3.3 Measurement procedures
- Lenses may be damaged if forced against the nose piece or moved
rapidly. Check that there is no dust on the nose piece tip and that the
nose piece is not worn.
- Because cylindrical lenses and plano lenses do not have an optical
center, the target may not be aligned with the center.
- Touch the “Clear” button to delete all measurement data saved in the
memory.
- When PD is not being measured, place the nose block on the left end.
- The measured value may not be identical to the value indicated on the
lens.
3.3.1 Measuring a monofocal lens
(Fig. 1) (Fig. 2)
1) Place the lens on the nose piece for measuring so that the front faces up, move the lens
table, and measure the lens while the lower edges of both sides of the spectacle frame
are in contact with the lens table.
2) Slowly move the lens so that the target comes to the center of the target area.
3) When the optical center of the lens is aligned with the center of the target area, the
target mark becomes larger. When the “Auto Hold” function is ON, the measured value
is automatically read. If the Auto Hold function is OFF, press the “Hold” button to
manually read the measured data.
4) The target mark disappears when the lens is removed from the nose piece.
When PD measurement is set to ON, moving the nose block to the left and right
switches left and right eyes.
(PD measurement is available only for TL-7000.)
5) When both lenses have been measured, the measurement result appears.
6) Touching the “Clear” button deletes the measurement data and returns to the
measurement screen for the first lens.
3-5 ■
3.3.2 Automatic detection of a progressive lens
When the “Auto Prog” function is ON and a progressive lens is placed on the nose
piece for spectacle glasses while the monolens measurement screen is open, the
instrument automatically detects the lens as a progressive lens and switches the
measurement mode to “PROG”.
(Fig. 1) (Fig. 2)
- Place the center of the lens on the nose piece for spectacle glasses.
The instrument may not be able to correctly detect a progressive lens
from a peripheral section of the lens even when set.
- When the addition (ADD value) is 1D or lower, automatic detection may
not be possible.
- When the “Auto Prog” function is activated, the measurement mode may
switch to PROG mode if the lens is tilted when placed. If the mode is
switched by mistake, select the monofocal lens measurement screen
again to change the mode. When the Auto Prog function is deactivated,
the instrument does not automatically detect the lens type or change the
mode to PROG.

measure the middle point, and then measure the near point.)
3) When both lenses have been measured, the measurement result appears. (The
secondary addition is only displayed in the case of a trifocal lens.)
- When removing the lens while reading the far point or near point, the
screen automatically returns to the far point measurement screen.
3-9 ■
3.3.5 Measuring contact lenses (CL mode; CL holder mode)
- Always measure contact lenses in CL mode or CL holder mode with the
nose piece for measuring contact lenses attached. Errors occur in
measured values when measurement is taken in monofocal
measurement mode.
- The cylindrical refraction (“C” value) may appear for a contact lens used
for a long period because the lens has deformed.
a) Measuring a hard contact lens (using the hard CL holder)

1) Replace the nose piece with the CL nose piece and change the measurement screen.
2) Select the “CL Holder” (1).
3) Place a hard contact lens on the hard CL holder with the outer surface of the lens facing
up.
4) Place the hard CL holder on the CL nose piece so that the “RL” indication shows on the
back side.
5) Move the holder to center the lens.
- The following types of contact lenses can be measured using the hard CL
holder.
When measuring other lenses, place the lens directly on the CL nose
piece and conduct measurement in CL mode; otherwise large
measurement errors may be introduced.
Power : -15D to +15D
Base curve : 7.35mm to 8.25mm
Diameter : 8.0 mm to 9.6 mm
■ 3-10
b) Measuring a hard contact lens (without using the hard CL holder)
2) Place the lens on the CL nose piece with the outer surface of the lens facing up.
3) Move the lens to center it.
c) Measuring a soft contact lens

2) Wipe any moisture from the contact lens.
3) Place a soft contact lens on the CL nose piece with the outer surface of the lens facing
up.
4) Move the lens to center it.
- Because it is difficult to maintain the proper shape of the lens due to the
nature of the lens, precise measurement is difficult.
3.3.6 Measuring the pupillary distance (PD) (TL-7000 only)

1) Activate the “PD” button “ON” and move the lens table to the front.
2) The PD value is displayed on the screen when moving the nose block to the right
slightly. If the RPD or LPD value is not displayed while measuring the PD, move the
nose block to the left end and then again to the right.
3) Press the nose pad of the frame to the PD measurement nose block, holding the top of
the spectacle frame toward you.
4) Place the lens to be measured on the nose piece for measuring spectacle glasses, with
the front facing up. The instrument automatically switches right or left (R/L) according to
the position of the nose block.
5) Unlock the lens table and measure the lens while the bottom edges of both sides of the
spectacle frame are in contact with the lens table.
- The PD cannot be measured on the single lens measurement screen.

- Firmly apply the PD measurement nose block to the pad of the spectacle
frame to ensure correct measurement.
- Always take measurements while the bottom edges of both sides of the
spectacle frame are in contact with the lens table to ensure correct
measurement.
3-11 ■
3.3.7 Measuring prisms
1) A prism can be indicated in the following three ways. Select the prism display mode on
the primary setting screen or the “Function” setting screen. Set “Total Prism” display to
show the total prismatic power of right and left lenses.
● Cartesian coordinates: PX, PY (△)

Prism symbols represent the base direction as follows.
O (base out) : Outward
I (base in) : Inward
U (base up) : Upward
D (base down) : Downward
● Polar coordinates : PSM, BAS (△, deg.)

PSM : Absolute prismatic power (△)
BAS : Base direction (angle in degrees)
● Decentering ： DCX, DCY (mm)

The distance from the current measurement position of the lens to the optical center is
indicated in the X (horizontal) and Y (vertical) directions.
DCX : Decentering in the X (horizontal) direction (mm)
DCY : Decentering in the Y (vertical) direction (mm)
When “Total Prism” is set to ON, the total prismatic power of the right and left is
displayed.
P-H : Prismatic power in the horizontal direction
P-V : Prismatic power in the vertical direction
* The prismatic power in the vertical direction indicates the value based on the right eye.
- When there is a prism, the target is not aligned with the center of the
target area because of the prismatic power, and the “Auto Hold” function
is not available.
■ 3-12
a) Measuring the prism of a monofocal lens
(Fig. 1)
1) The examiner and the patient face each other, approximately 40 cm apart.
2) The examiner covers his/her right eye and instructs the patient to look at the examiner's
left eye.
3) Mark a small dot (1-mm diameter or smaller) on the right lens to indicate the center of
the pupil.
4) The examiner covers his/her left eye and instructs the patient to look at the examiner's
right eye.
5) Similar to the right lens, mark a small dot (1-mm diameter or smaller) on the left lens to
indicate the center of the pupil.
6) Set the position of the marked dot and press the HOLD button to measure the prismatic
power. The target appears at a point outside the center of the target area according to
the measured prismatic power.
7) Repeat these steps to measure the left lens.
8) When both lenses have been measured, the prism values of the lenses appear. When
“Total Prism” is ON, the total prismatic power of both lenses is also displayed.
b) Measuring the upper/lower prism of a monofocal lens

1) Measure the optical center (position where both the upper and lower prism is 0.0△) of
the right lens. Measure the lens while the bottom edges of both sides of the spectacle
frame are in contact with the lens table.
2) Press the table lock button to lock the lens table at the position where the right lens was
measured.
3) Measure the left lens. While the bottom edges of both sides of the spectacle frame are
in contact with the lens table, place the left lens on the nose piece and align the target in
the horizontal direction only.
4) If the target appears at a point above or below the center of the target area, the lens will
show prisms. When the target is aligned with the center of the target area, there is no
upper or lower prism.
5) Press the HOLD button to measure the prismatic power of the left lens. When the Total
Prism function is ON, the total upper/lower prismatic power of the measured glasses is
shown.
3-13 ■
c) Measuring the prism of a progressive lens
Lens mark
(Fig. 1)
1) Mark a dot at the position for measuring the far point. Find the two lens marks, and
place dots on these marks with a felt pen and the center between them with the marking
unit.
2) Then place a dot at a position approximately 5 - 10 mm above the marked center dot as
the point for measuring the far point.

3) Set the marked position for measuring the far point on the nose piece and touch the
“HOLD” button to take the measurement. The target appears at a point outside the
center of the area according to the measured prismatic power.
* The prismatic degree and power of the far point vary depending on the position of the
measured point. When measuring the prism in this manner, consider possible errors
beforehand.
4) Measure the addition as usual for the near point.
■ 3-14
3.3.8 Simple map preparation
After measuring progressive lenses, the C-value map of the measured lens can be
prepared.
(Fig. 1) (Fig. 2)
1) After measuring the progressive lens, touch the simple map preparation button to open
the simple map preparation screen.
* Measure the PD and “L” value when measuring the progressive lens before preparing
the map. If the PD and “L” value are not used, the position information of the lens
cannot be correctly obtained and the accuracy of the map lowers significantly.
2) Touch the “HOLD” button to start preparation of the map.
3) Take a measurement at an arbitrary point using the nose block and lens table.
Measured sections are colored on the screen.
4) Touch the “HOLD” button again when points to be included in the map have been
measured.
5) The completed C-value map appears.
(Fig. 3) (Fig. 4)
- This function is designed to visualize the clear vision area and area of
astigmatic aberration. However, measurement using the PD and “L”
value needs to be performed to obtain correct positional information.
With certain spectacle glasses, if measurement is performed without using
the PD or “L” value, the simple map preparation may not be available.
(PD and L value measurement functions are available only for TL-7000)

3.4 Calculating refractive index of lenses
Use a spherometer to obtain the refractive power of the lens to be measured.
(3)
(1)
(4)
(2)
(Fig. 1)
(Fig. 2)
Measuring the front dioptry (D1)
- The refractive power of the spherometer here (D1 and D2) is the value
obtained when the refractive index of the lens is 1.523. If the refractive
index of the lens measured by your spherometer is not 1.523, set the
appropriate refractive index for your spherometer.
The refractive index of the spherometer is able to be varied within the
range of 1.400 < ne < 1.900.
The new values are saved in the memory and are retained even after
turning power off.
- When measuring an aspherical lens, errors of 0.03 - 0.05 may occur in the
calculated refractive index.
- When measuring a progressive lens or progressive lens exclusively for
reading, enter the value read by the spherometer at the measured far
point or near point.
However, if a progressive area covers the measured far point or near
point, measurement cannot be completed correctly by the spherometer
and errors may occur in the refractive index obtained.
3-17 ■
1) Set “Auto Hold” “OFF”.
2) Secure the lens with the lens holder when the target is aligned with the center.
3) Touch the “HOLD” button to read the measurement data and then mark points on the
lens.
4) Touch the “CAL” button to change the screen to the refractive index measurement
screen.
5) Touch the refractive index field (1) to activate it when you need to change the refractive
index of a spherometer. Touch the “Default” button (2) to reset the value to the default
(1.523).
6) Remove the lens from the nose piece and measure the diopter of the lens using the
spherometer. Place the lens on the level table, apply the spherometer in the direction of
the marked points, and read the value of the spherometer (D1: front dioptry). Repeat to
measure the diopter of the opposite side (reverse side) (D2: back dioptry).
7) Touch the D1 or D2 entry field (3) to select an item and enter a value using the keypad
to display the refractive index of the measured lens (4). Enter values from +25D to -25D
for D1 and D2. Otherwise an error occurs and "ERROR!" appears in the calculation
result. An error also occurs when the sum of D1 and D2 is 0.
■ 3-18
3.5 Printout

4. TECHNICAL INFORMATION
4.1 Prism
4.1.1 Refraction of prism and lens
1) Two non-parallel refracting surfaces generate

prismatic power. The incident light is refracted toward
the base.
*1 prism diopter (1 ∆): The unit measuring the
deviation of light passing through a prism equal to a
deviation of 1 centimeter at a distance of 1 meter.
Base
2) A lens can be regarded as a group of prisms. A convex
(Fig. 1)
lens is a group of prisms with the base in the center,
so the light is refracted toward the center and
converged.
Light converges Base

toward the center.
(Fig. 2)
3) The point where light is not refracted by the prism is

called the optical center and the prismatic power at
this point is 0∆. The prismatic power becomes larger
at points farther from the optical center.
4) Because a concave lens is a group of prisms with the
base around the outside, the light is refracted
outwards and diverged.
Base
Light is refracted
outwards.
Base
(Fig. 3)
5) Also for a concave lens, the point where light is not

refracted by the prism is called the optical center and
the prismatic power at this point is 0∆. The prismatic
power becomes larger at points farther from the
optical center.

6.2 General operation for measuring lenses
● The target is not aligned with the center of the target area. / The “Auto Hold” function
does not work.
A monofocal lens with a spherical power ("S" value) of 0.0D and which only
has a cylindrical power ("C" value) was measured.
When a monofocal lens only has a cylindrical power ("C" value) and its
spherical power ("S" value) is 0.0D, the optical center is not a single point but
exists as a line. Therefore, the target cannot be aligned with the center of the
target area and the Auto Hold function does not work. In this case, touch the
“HOLD” button to read the value measured in the physical center of the lens.
A progressive power lens with a spherical power ("S" value) of 0.0D was
measured.
No optical center exists on a progressive power lens with a spherical power
("S" value) of 0.0D. Therefore, the target cannot be aligned with the center of
the target area and the Auto Hold function does not work. In this case, move
the lens slightly back, forth, to the right and left at a point approximately 10 -
15 mm above the center of the spectacle frame, and touch the "HOLD" button
at the position where there is least fluctuation of the SPH value to take the
measurement.
● At the time of measurement, the target was aligned with the center when the lens is
significantly offset to the nasal or temporal side within the spectacle frame.
A prism lens was measured.
Refer to “3.3.7 Measuring prisms”.
6-3 ■
6.3 Measuring progressive power lenses
● The screen does not change to the far point measurement screen.
The addition is small for a progressive lens with an addition (ADD) of 1D or
lower, or for progressive lenses for computers or for intermediate and near
points, so the target may not be aligned with the center of the target area when
detecting the progressive area.
There is a progressive zone near the center of the lens.
Set the lens at the approximate area and touch the "HOLD" button to display
the far point measurement screen.
● Measurement values vary.

The lens is not set correctly.
Push the lens firmly against the nose piece for measuring spectacle glasses.
The lens must not be tilted or separated from the nose piece for measuring
spectacle glasses.
Firmly apply the lens to the nose piece and take measurements again.

Guidance and manufacturer's declaration electromagnetic
immunity Table 204
The TL-7000/TL-6000 is intended for use in the electromagnetic environment specified below.
The customer or the user of the TL-7000/TL-6000 should ensure that it is used in such an environment.
Immunity test IEC 60601 test Compliance Electromagnetic environment - guidance
level level
Portable and mobile RF communication
equipment should not be used closer to any
part of the TL-7000/TL-6000, including cables,
than the recommended separation distance
calculated from the equation applicable to the
frequency of the transmitter.
Recommended separation distance
Conducted RF 3 V rms 3 V rms d =1.2

IEC 61000-4-6 150kHz to 80MHz d =1.2 80 MHz to 800 MHz
d =2.3 800 MHz to 2.5 GHz

Radiated RF 3 V/m
IEC 61000-4-3 80MHz to 2,5GHz of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the
transmitter manufacturer and d is the
recommended separation distance in meters
(m).
Field strengths from fixed RF transmitters,
as determined by an electromagnetic site
survey, should be less than the compliance
level in each frequency range. Interference
may occur in the vicinity of equipment marked
with the following symbol:
Note1 : At 80MHz and 800MHz, the higher frequency range applies.

Note2 : These guidelines may not apply in all situations. Electromagnetic distribution is
affected by absorption and reflection from structures, objects and people.
a) Field strengths from fixed transmitters, such as base stations for radio (cellular/cordless) telephones and
land mobile radios, amateur radio, AM and FM radio broadcast and TV broadcast cannot be predicted
theoretically with accuracy.
To assess the electromagnetic environment due to fixed RF transmitters, an electromagnetic site survey
should be considered. If the measured field strength in the location in which the TL-7000/TL-6000 is used
exceeds the applicable RF compliance level above, the TL-7000/TL-6000 should be observed to verify
normal operation. If abnormal performance is observed, additional measures may be necessary, such as
reorienting or relocating the TL-7000/TL-6000.
b) Over the frequency range 150 kHz to 80 MHz, field strengths should be less than 3 V/m.

Recommended separation distances between
portable and mobile RF communications equipment and the
TL-7000/TL-6000 Table 206
The TL-7000/TL-6000 is intended for use in an electromagnetic environment in which radiated RF
disturbances are controlled. The customer or the user of the TL-7000/TL-6000 can help prevent
electromagnetic interference by maintaining a minimum distance between portable and mobile
RF communications equipment (transmitters) and the TL-7000/TL-6000 as recommended below,
according to the maximum output power of the communications equipment.

For transmitters rated at a maximum output power not listed above, the recommended separation
distance (d) in meters (m) can be estimated using the equation applicable to the frequency of the
transmitter, where P is the maximum output power rating of the transmitter in watts (W) according to the
transmitter manufacturer.
NOTE 1 : At 80MHz and 800MHz, the separation distance for the higher frequency range applies.
